Well the Nvidia inspector way of tweaking is not an option for atm, as it means loosing the settings for FSX.

I did like the idea of getting Rex to work, as that would mean a major improvement of the cloud textures.

So far I am not seeing a reason to tweak the cfg file, as I am getting 60 - 100+ fps (which doesn't say that much). For me a smooth running sim is what it is all about, and I have no issues in that field with all settings to Ultra High.

Besides the already several times reported graphics issue, the sim itself is running very nice,
 
The Nvidia Inspector advice is flawed.

The correct way is to leave the FSX profile alone and create a new one.
You can call it Flight School for example and just add FSc.exe to it.
Then all the settings can be altered to suit his guide with no effect on any other
game or simulator.

I have made the UK VFR photo scenery work, though with flaws in some of the tiles.
It doesn't look good though with the chosen display method.
I can see this changing soon, either by Dovetail or some enterprising person with enough
depth of knowledge of shaders to do it.
 
Well I gave it a brief whizz around London which in FSX is usually best avoided, and I was mightily impressed with the FPS on my machine it was up in the 60's (I5 4690K, W7 64bit. 32GB RAM. Not at all like FSX. Highly detailed yet no slow downs or jitters. Sure, barely any AI to slow things but still way better than a virgin FSX. So imo it bodes well for the full release later on if they keep this up.:encouragement:

Well, right off the bat I have a problem. The very first thing the Tweak Guide mentions is a change to the Buffer Pools? My DTG Flight School cfg file does NOT have a Buffer Pools listed. I have checked it thoroughly. Does not show up under Search, and I have scrolled up and down it. NO Buffer Pools. Now what??

I'm afraid I don't have an answer yet...I don't either, but I don't seem to have a problem. It's fast and the graphics look pretty good...looking for an answer for you.
 
Navy Chief just add your bufferpools exactly as he wrote it you may have to experiment with the other numbers as each PC is different.

Does this thing have a map? I've allocated a key, but only get an FSX-type frame com¡containing a black rectangle.
